SimaPro hands down. OpenLCA to start practicing and discover (free)
If you are asking this question, I assume you are not an LCA practitioner. In that case, something that simplifies the process would be a good choice. That would be very country based, a quick google search can be useful.
I see. For professional LCA softwares, it’s pretty much dominated by three companies, no matter who else comes after them needs to license the datasets from them. However, their softwares are extremely difficult to use, and targeting pure LCA experts. Then you have the huge lists of LCA products that are marketed to a more “general” user base. UX there usually is much smoother than the traditional LCA software. In my experience, a lot of them are used for EPD rather than LCA, similar but slightly different (this is my own opinion since that’s the part I did a bit of research on).
